Universal Lord: Creating My Valkyries Army
Chapter 31: Ch.31 Surrounded

Chapter 31: Ch.31 Surrounded

"Explain!"

Neo commanded in a grave tone as his face darkened. This was a big loss, especially for him, who didn’t have an army troop.

With all those deaths, his territory had lost at least five thousand active combatants; even with the added fifteen thousand bought by Stella, it was still a huge loss.

"My Lord, this is all the information passed by them before we lost contact."

Rin, the deputy minister of war, quickly replied as he gave Neo a relatively thick stacks of files.

"These are all the information they could send before we lost contact with them."

Rin added as his face was filled with sadness. He was just a leader of a small tribe before joining the lord.

So this was the first time he had seen so much casualty. Thinking of all the dead beastmen, especially those with whom he was on friendly terms, he could not help but want to cry.

Neo didn’t say anything as he started to look through the files, the more he looked, the darker his expression became.

Stella watched this from the side as anger burned in her heart, anger again those who made her dearest lord so stressed.

"Stella, show me your wings."

Neo commanded as he looked back. Stella followed his command as her wings were on full display. Without saying anything else, he burrowed his head into the wings.

Feeling the soft and somewhat cold touch of the feathers, his anxious heart calmed down as his mood became better.

He released a tired sigh as he looked up at the ceiling, his body was now resting atop Stella’s body as she covered him with her wings.

Looking at her lord who was looking at the ceiling with a lost expression her heart was distressed as she couldn’t wait to destroy all those enemies that blocked her lord’s way.

"Call, all the high ranking members."

"Especially Lily, Ask her to rush over here."

Neo commanded Rin as he rested his head on the soft belly of Stella. He has mostly calmed down as he was thinking of countermeasures to use for the problems he was facing.

"My Lovely Lord, You Called!!"

Lily rushed like the wind as she entered the room with an anxious expression, her always gentle smile was gone as she had felt her lord’s distress from his connection.

In her eyes, the flames of anger were burning vigorously as she had already thought of thousands of vicious magic to use against enemy’s.

As she entered the room, she found her lord resting on Stella’s embrace, Her eyes met Stella as both of them could see the anger and distress in one another’s eyes.

"Lily, stand beside me."

Neo spoke as he once again focused his attention on the ceiling of the room.

"Yes, my lovely lord~"

Lily spoke softly as the gentle expression reappeared on her face, She stood beside Neo on his left.

Without saying anything else, she started to massage Neo’s body as she unfolded her domain, although the range was only ten meters, it was enough to cover Neo and Stella.

Flowers started to bloom on the ground as the fresh and fragrant scent entered Neo’s nose; this calmed his mood down even more.

Plus, with the 1000% stats boost, his thinking became faster as plans after plans were made in his head.

As time ticked by beastmen entered the room, they were the various ministers that Neo had appointed, Rin and Raba, the minister of houses and management were at the forefront.

Behind them were two human and a dwarf, also followed, as they were the newly appointed members of the court that Neo had created.

But even with the three additional members, the number of people had decreased instead of increased.

All the members he chose for the court have high potential and would most likely reach Transcendent rank in the future.

So the loss of five or so was greater than the loss of five thousand troops.

Snap!

Neo snapped his fingers as the files in his hands floated; they flew toward Rin’s hand and fell down. Rin caught it as he waited for the Lord’s command.

"Explain the files."

Neo commanded as he stood up, his back being straight as he released a majestic aura.

Lily and Stella returned to their position sitting left and right of Neo, respectively. Lily’s domain was still active, so their strength had climbed to a higher level.

Thus, the aura released by them currently was very strong, so strong that even Ascension Rank would struggle to stand upright, let alone these supernatural ranks.

They were even struggling to breathe as most fell to the ground; this left Neo a little speechless.

He had just released his aura to remove his last bit of distress, this wasn’t the cue for Lily and Stella to also release their aura.

"Control Your Aura!"

Neo commanded, and both of them followed without missing a beat. The oppressive aura disappeared as the beastmen were finally able to breathe.

They stood up with shaky legs as they waited for Rin to speak.

"All our troops that have been sent to expand the territory in the north and east have been wiped out."

"All troops that were sent to the west and south for collecting resources have also lost contact, most likely having also been wiped out."

"These are the final reports they were able to send before they lost contact."

"First, the east. They had the most progress among the two groups, having almost completed their assignments."

"The last information they had sent was about fighting a group of underground races."

"So they were most likely destroyed by them."

Underground races are the collective term for those who like to live in deep caves and places with less sunlight.

The most famous and the strongest, with the largest number among these races, are the demons and dark elves in this continent. Although you can find thousands of varying races in the underground area but there aren’t any big tribes among them.

"In the north side, the progress was slow but steady; in just two days, they should have been able to complete their job."

"But they were also wiped out, wiped out too quickly.."

"The only word they send is ’Undead’."

This is the thing that troubled Neo the most; after all, he was sure that a top tier Angel Lord was in the south direction, but now he found another lord was in the north side.

The fact that the undead were able to wipe out an army of beastmen so quickly the undead are most like the top tier type.

Though there is a chance that the undead can be a high-tier troop. Nonetheless, he is surrounded by two strong lords on two different sides.

Although their main territory should be at least a hundred thousand kilometers away from his territory but that is a small distance for most transcendent and ascension rank and would only take few hours to travel.

Take Stella for example, even without taking the blessing in consideration if she flies with full speed she should be able to travel that distance in seven or eight hours.

"Although the south and West sides were already cleared.."

"When the resource collecting team were doing their work they well wiped out."

"The south team was wiped out by an army of angels led by ten transcendent rank angels."

"They seem to be trying to build a base ten thousand kilometers from here."

The lord of angels seems to have found Neo’s territory and, knowing his strength due to Stella, he seems to be preparing for an attack.

This was the biggest worry felt by Neo; dealing with a lord is never simple, especially a top-tier one.

In the early stage, with the help of the system shop, the strongest means of a lord isn’t their army but the gadgets they can buy from the store.

Even Neo has few items that can deal with a Mortal king; although the price is expensive, most competent lords will be able to buy it.

"As for the west side, they were wiped out by the Thousand Beast Alliance."

With that, Rin finished his words as he backed down, all the people in the room stood in silence waiting for Neo’s next words.

Neo didn’t say anything as he gazed at all the people he had selected. These ministers and generals were a group of competent people he had appointed.

They not only have the most potential, but their mind is also agile, but due to their loyalty to Neo and their fear of Stella and Lily, they haven’t dared to present their opinion.

The creating of a competent team is the action all the lords take as this is one of the most important task in novice stage.

But unlike others who can use their own summoned race, Neo had to use the races he had conquered.

"What do you think we should do?"
